He wrapped his thick fingers around her fine long strands of dark brown hair. It still smelled of her herbal shampoo, and slipped through his fingers like silk. He knew he shouldn’t be in her room. If Dom walked in, he was dead, they both were. He wrapped his arm around her stomach looking for any sign that she was waking.

And I’d give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest thing to heaven that I’ll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now



She stirred next to him, and rolled the rest of the way over onto her back. She didn’t even open her eyes, before she murmured his name.

“Vince?” It was more of a question.

“I'm here baby.” He whispered back. She had been having nightmares ever since they moved down to Mexico.

He reached a hand over to smooth her hair back from her face, and let his lips gently graze hers. She accepted his kiss before smoothly pulling away. It wasn’t like how they used to kiss…like they used to kiss before Brian came along. She turned her face away from his, and he buried his face in her neck, whuffling softly to give her goose bumps. He watched her eyes, as they glanced sadly towards the window. She missed her life back in California. He knew he shouldn’t have been in there with her, he should have been in his own bed across the hall, but he didn’t want to leave. And this time, he didn’t think that she wanted him to leave either.

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

He wanted to love her, he wanted to be there for her, and make her happy…but he knew that Brian was still in her heart. That lying son of a bitch, he had her heart…and not him. It killed him that she couldn’t see past Brian. That she couldn’t see how much he loved her. He absentmindedly rubbed her shoulder and placed a gentle kiss on her jutting shoulder blade. He wanted to prove to her just how much she meant…but he wasn’t sure how.

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am



He felt her swallow a few times, trying to keep her breathing normal. He felt a slight internal exchange of emotions between them, and the thought of her acknowledging his touch sent chills through his body.

“Vince…” she whispered slowly. He leaned in to kiss her shoulder. “You shouldn’t be in here.” She said even softer.

“Mia.” He said, propping himself up on one elbow. He strained to make out her face in the dark. “Don’t tell me you're still hoping he will come back.” He felt the familiar feeling of anger starting to form in the pit of his stomach. He couldn’t ever handle talking about Brian.

“What if he comes back V?” She asked. “And he sees me with you, and he leaves. I don’t want to lose him again.” She pulled away from him completely now, and curled into a small ball on her side of the bed.

Vince would have moved to comfort her, but he didn’t want to push her away any more that she already was. He let out a frustrated sigh, and rubbed his eyes. He felt like he was in a love triangle. Well it wasn’t really a triangle; Brain wasn’t physically part of it anymore. And if he did care about Mia he would have found her by now. If the punk did show up…Dom and him would make sure that he never got to Mia. Hell, he wouldn’t even be able to lay eyes on her.

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know you’re alive

Vince rolled onto his back again, and stared at the ceiling fan spinning around. A million thoughts ran through his mind. Like how he wanted to tell her how much he loved her, and how he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her no matter what tried to drive them apart…even if it was Dom. And how he loved every little thing she did even down to her tedious tea making process. He felt the tears form and slide to the corner of his eyes. Before he let them fall, and before Mia realized what was happening, he leaned over kissed her cheek gently, and was out of the bed. Mia sat up startled at his quick escape.

“Vince?” She whispered loudly. She didn’t dare yell out for him…the walls were too thin.

His feet hit the steps hard, sending thudding sounds echoing off the walls. He was out the back door, letting his feet get lost in the sand, that led to the ocean of possibilities, in seconds. He prayed that she wouldn’t follow him…that she wouldn’t come and rescue him from this fantasy world he was living in…and snap him back into reality. He prayed that she was still upstairs so that she wouldn’t have to see him looking like such a wreck.

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am


I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

He sat in the sand at the oceans edge, not noticing the seeping feeling of the water soaking into his sweatpants. His tears mingled with the ocean, and he stared up at the clear sky watching the twinkling stars glistening in the inky atmosphere. His tears blurred his vision, but they didn’t stop his ears. He heard the hum of the sand as her body gracefully made its way over the sand to him. He bashfully swiped at his eyes, and dragged his arm across his now running nose. She was crying too, but she didn’t attempt to hide it.

She opened the blanket she was covered in, and crawled into his lap, smashing wet sand in between their now attached bodies. She lay back in his arms, and forced him to touch her. Forced his hands to take hers. Her tiny fingers intertwined with his thick clumsy hands, which magically became graceful as they wandered over her body. Together they cried, and he rocked her back and forth trying to comfort her without words. She was the first to speak.

“He’s not coming back is he?” She whispered hoarsely. Vince didn’t trust his voice; he didn’t want to be the one who took the one last glimmer of hope that was keeping her entire world glued together. He shook his head instead. She cried harder now. “I'm so sorry Vince.” She blubbered. “I'm so sorry that I got you into this…that I pushed you away.” He shushed her, and they sat there in silence.

He wanted to tell her that he loved her; he wanted to tell her so bad…

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
